Tromsø Expo Center presents The Provocative Work of Dorena Verne

Saturday, May 9, 2026
11 am grid time / 8 pm Berlin time
grid.wolfterritories.org:8002:TROMSO

Dorena Verne’s ongoing portrait series is an exploration of identity as lived practice.

Through the disciplined, iterative rendering of a single figure—her imagined and rightful self—Verne examines the intertwined dynamics of gender, power, and visibility. The work’s provocation lies not in spectacle, but in its unwavering assertion of personhood within a cultural landscape that continues to contest it. Each image reflects a synthesis of technical mastery and autobiographical inquiry, revealing a visual language shaped by resilience, clarity, and intention.

This exhibition presents a body of work grounded in craft and conviction, inviting viewers to engage with an artist who transforms self‑representation into a form of truth‑telling.

Champagne, hors d'oeuvres, and gourmet coffee to be catered by the Chronic Cat Cafe and the Pot Pie Bakery. There is no dress code, however, we all love an opportunity to dress up! One rule: You can wear pearls, but no *clutching* of them. 😎 Curated music brought to you by Xenon Darrow - in the genres of chill, triphop, and classics.

This is an exciting and explosive start to the mission of the Expo Center - to provide a space for expression and demonstration of the craft and creativity of our virtual world denizens throughout the world and the hypergrid.

Legacy Women – drei Looks, eine klare Ansage

Diese Legacy‑Frauen brauchen keinen roten Teppich, um Eindruck zu machen.
Ein Bodysuit, ein Farbkracher, ein tiefes Dekolleté – und schon weiß jeder:
Hier wird nicht gefragt, ob etwas „zu viel“ ist. Hier wird entschieden, was genug ist.

Links gibt’s Power, die glitzert.
In der Mitte ein Farbmix, der sagt: „Ich bin die Stimmung.“
Rechts ein Auftritt, der so tief geht wie der Ausschnitt.
Drei Styles, ein gemeinsamer Nenner: Selbstbewusstsein im Überfluss.

Legacy Women tragen nicht Mode.
Sie tragen eine Warnung: Bitte nicht unterschätzen.

BK‑Mode – für Frauen, die nicht nur auffallen,
sondern dafür sorgen, dass man nicht mehr wegschaut.

I have this great review I want to share about Dismayland by Spax Orion https://opensimworld.com/user/Brettson

If you havent checked it out please do. Spax and his cool twisted mind knew what he was doing when he built this. There is no region anywhere like it.

The scripts alone speak for themselves. It is dark, creepy, funny and lots of fun.

I had a chance to check out his new ScavHunt game. The past few days I have spent hours in his region just playing that game and trying to win it which I eventually did. Maybe with a little help lol. It is one of those games that keeps you on the edge.

The region is like walking through a bad nightmare but in a cool twisted way that you get curious enough to check it out.

His mind created things that I would have never guessed you could even do in opensim. The detail, the music, the afterlife the insanity lol. It is a great region.

All I got to say is hats off to Spax and if you all want to check it out, copy the link below and put it into the map.

MAZE VIEWER MAJOR UPDATE KDU 8.0
I am extremely pleased and excited to announce that I have obtained a license (and yes for those of you that may know this, I confirmed it today for sharing with the community--which is YOU , as an amateur) for KDU. For those that don't know what that means...it is well-- some of you said firestorm still looks a bit better than my work..well it is because of OpenJpg having to be used in opensim. The story is extremely long, it falls like star wars..long ago in a galaxy far away..I don't mind chatting with you about it, though, so say hello if you want to. KDU is the texture library firestorm uses. I wrote them and got the license for 150 dollars! I also added a zoom to whatever object is selected for editing. While it is selected just choose ALT+Z or in Controls in prefs choose your own. In Blender (.) zooms to selected so I duplicated the idea. https://maze.bz/mazebzviewer.zip

Heads up, friends:
Clifford is currently working on needed Updates with the grid, and it may be down for a few hours. Please be patient while it goes ahead.
We’ll be back online as soon as possible..

We Will be back for our 6am Morning Breakfast Show with Ted Junior!

Reminder:

E Grid is shutting down tonight for almost three weeks (till the 24th).

Lots of backups and maintenance plus we're out of town and not leaving the servers going all that time with no one to oversee them. Have a wonderful Easter everyone!! xxx

A NEW PHASE IN DEVELOPMENT

So many changes have been made to Dismayland that we needed a NEW MAP! We would love to post more pictures but Management has advised us that "evidence" is a liability. What we CAN tell you is that several new attractions have been added, at least two of them are survivable, and the AFTERLIFE gift shop now stocks items you didn't know you needed and still don't.

Chaos Engine has been installed, tested, and validated across all ride systems. Survivability metrics remain proprietary. The unstoppable and utterly shameless Dale and Marvin Pigeon are the purveyors of secrets, which can be easily coaxed out of them if you just stick around and LISTEN.

Carla Kincaid Yoshikawa created this video to showcase how Opensim is effective when it comes to engaging interactive, experiential, social learning. She filmed part of the Wrong Biennale Synthetic Dreams Exhibit as an example.

✨ LEGACY MEN – Für alle, die nicht nur rumstehen, sondern Eindruck schinden

Die neuen Herren‑Outfits im BK‑Mode Park sind da – und sie haben beschlossen, keine Gefangenen zu machen. Elegante Anzüge, lässige Freizeitlooks und genug Stilpower, um selbst den gelangweiltesten Avatar plötzlich aussehen zu lassen wie: „Ja, ich weiß, ich sehe gut aus. Ist okay.“

Unsere Legacy‑Outfits sind für Männer, die wissen, was sie wollen – oder zumindest so tun, als wüssten sie’s. Ob du gerade einen Business‑Deal einfädelst, einen Club aufmischst oder einfach nur versuchst, nicht wie frisch aus der Sandbox auszusehen: Diese Outfits retten dich. Stilvoll, selbstbewusst und mit genau der richtigen Portion „Ich bin nicht arrogant, ich bin einfach nur gut angezogen.“

Also komm vorbei, schnapp dir deinen Look und lass die anderen Avatare ruhig ein bisschen nervös werden.

🌊 A Note from Mermaid’s Cove 🌊

Dear friends,

Due to illness in my family, I’ll be stepping back for a little while. Mermaid’s Cove will remain open for your enjoyment, but The Golden Dreams Ballroom and The Blue Grotto will be closed for events for a few weeks.

I truly hope to be back soon. When I return, DJ Macy, Putrisolo, and I will bring you even more wonderful events to enjoy together and prepare for new live singers and DJs at the cove too!

In the meantime, please make yourselves at home in the cove —
• enjoy the shopping,
• relax on the beaches,
• explore the carnival,
• and take a swim in Mermaid Lagoon.

There is 24/7 music, and the club and ballroom spaces remain open for dancing with someone special.

Thank you for your understanding, your kindness, and for keeping the spirit of Mermaid’s Cove shining.

With love,
Jojo and Harmony

CHAOS ENGINE: I made a drop in replacement for the coaster code in the script area which not only improves keyframe playback but also syncs with other vehicles (See our 'Scrambler' type ride Dizzy Wizzy). Most importantly, a 'silent' dice roll at ride start decides if the ride will BREAK, then Dirty Helga's Chaos Package Deploys! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3BvtpuPdR4 Having a BAD DAY at the FAIR was NEVER SO MUCH FUN!

Die Stadt schläft nie – und dein Look sollte es auch nicht. Unsere neue Kollektion ist da und bringt den Puls der Metropole direkt in deinen Kleiderschrank. Inspiriert von moderner Architektur und dem Chaos der Rush Hour haben wir Styles kreiert, die alles mitmachen: vom ersten Meeting bis zum letzten Drink in der Rooftop-Bar.

There are lots of OpenSim users with top-of-the-line, state-of-the-art machines with a high-end Nvidia gaming graphics card running Windows 11 who complain about Firestorm 7 being terribly slow. In comparison with Firestorm 6 even.

I have hardware that was upper-mid-range in 2018 with AMD graphics running Debian GNU/Linux. I've got nothing to complain about how Firestorm 7 is performing. (Of course, literally nobody here will believe me.)

This either means that I've hit a sweet spot in combining hardware and software. And that the combination of a top-range Intel i9 CPU, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 Ti and Windows 11 is actually objectively slower than the combination of an eight-year-old six-core AMD Ryzen CPU, and AMD Radeon RX 590 and Debian. At least when running Firestorm.

Or this means that everyone else considers a two-digit frame rate a slideshow whereas I've happily capped my frame rate at 30.

What I can comprehend even less is that single-threaded Firestorm 6 is supposed to be faster than multi-threaded Firestorm 7 on a CPU with 12, 16, 24 or more threads.
